<h3>Details</h3>

<p>Self report personality scales tend to measure the &ldquo;Giant 2&quot; of Extraversion and Neuroticism or the &ldquo;Big 5&quot; of Extraversion, Neuroticism, Agreeableness, Conscientiousness, and Openness.  Here is a small data set from Northwestern University undergraduates with scores on the Eysenck Personality Inventory (EPI) and a Big 5 inventory taken from the International Personality Item Pool.
